VERIZON updated their prepaid Data Plans
 

Devices capable of using these plans are any 3G/4G LTE tablets, mobile hotspots, and other various connected devices.

Plans

500MB for $15/week
1GB for $20/month
2GB for $35/2 months
5GB for $60/2 months
10GB for $100/2 months
Much better, my last data plan I purchased the end of September it was 3GB/1 month for $60. Now $60 will get 5GB/2months. So for the same price they are giving 2GB more and 1 extra month

Great to see them lowering prices. Too bad for them I'm on a flashed mifi :spy:

I think this is the way that all data plans are going - cheaper and cheaper. The cable companies and cellular companies HATE THIS. The cable companies especially. They would rather parcel out each byte of data like it was precious and charge a fortune for it. It is cheaper than investing in faster infrastructure. But they won't be able to keep it up.

Remember when cellular service cost 50 cents a minute and you had to have a FICO score of 700+ to get a phone?

Now, phones can be had for $5, and even the most expensive cellular plans are maybe 5 cents a minute.

The same thing is now happening with broadband. A few years from now, we will catch up with the rest of the world, with faster speeds and cheaper plans.

Wow, VZW finally woke up. Think I will get their newest $50 LTE box this weekend. thanks for the update Dmshark.

BTW, these VZW boxes should be unlocked, so gonna be testing multiple SIMs in this from multiple carriers. i will have the tsunami of IP pools

Re: VERIZON updated their prepaid Data Plans
 

Besides the extra GB It's great how they are now running these as 2 moth plans instead of 1 month.

They are the first to,offer prepaid 2 month plans, I'm curious to see how the other carriers respond

I'm gonna stick to my $5/month for unlimited 3G bandwith....

I used a flash Mifi for a year when I first started all this, but once I started using LTE speeds it's just worth it for me.

The flashed device was great when I was starting but, it has some lag time, and lot of times clicking back and forth and reloading. So nice to just zip through

Re: VERIZON updated their prepaid Data Plans
 

Can you put a sim card from another PHONE carrier such as Virgin Mobil in my Verizon LTE modem.?
I have a cell plan with Virgin Mobil too but I never learned/had time to
learn how to use the cell service to convert it to internet service for more IP's and good back up to my other services.

But I heard that lte has few ip range isn't that right?

Re: VERIZON updated their prepaid Data Plans
 

Wow, this is great news!

Re: VERIZON updated their prepaid Data Plans
 

I get a new IP every time, once in a while a used one will come up and I'll just off/on.

Even T-Mobile has improved, I have their hotspot also, and a year ago the ip range was extremely small , and you would need to turn off for sometimes 10 + min to get the IP to change.

Now , their IP pool is huge, rarely I get repeats, and it changes as easily as Verizon

Re: VERIZON updated their prepaid Data Plans
 

Which box? And I assume you use it on LTE?

Yes 4GLTE , Verizon Jetpack Mifi 5510L, I also have the model before that one the Ver Jet Mifi 4410 or something like that, works just as well
